Surprising in the twisties

[Simon Gibbs]

Still haven’t done 1000 miles but experienced the LC on twisty, country A and B roads for the first time today. I am very impressed with how the big girl coped. Not the most engaging obviously but in terms of easy, fast cross country pace, very impressive. It highlighted the sheer quality of the LC.

If it has rear wheel steering, it will be impressive. 
 

Of course, it’s a big heavy car, but it incredibly balanced and has great brakes. 
 

When I’ve taken other drivers out in the LC, the general consensus was “That’s not what I expected”. One of those was a Porsche GT4 driver. Mind you, after I demoed the LC, he took me out in the GT4. DEAR LORD!!!!! 😂😂😂😂

Mines a Sport so no rear wheel steering. Even so turn in is surprisingly good for a big heavy GT. Not tried an LC with rear wheel steering but never been a huge fan. Weirdly had a Prelude back in the day which may have been one of the first with rear wheel steer if memory serves. It was the effortless, relaxed' quiet speed over fairly rough twisty roads that amazed me.
